Barcamp (23 – 20) is coming up on October 12th, 2019 from 2 PM till 7 PM, unless the world suddenly drowns as ice glaciers melt in September’s heat.
Location is Coded Academy, at Argan Business Park, in the Free Trade Zone area. See our registration page for the map.
Four thumbs up for Coded for offering to host us and sponsoring our stay! Find them on Twitter and Instagram. They host many events throughout the year, such as startup founder speaking and the like. We highly recommend following them!
Timing
The event will be from 2 PM till 8 PM. 2-2:30 & 7:30-8 are for networking (getting to know/meet people). We start presenting @ 2:30 till 7:30 pm.
Registration is for both attendees & speakers,
so we can estimate the number of seats
Topic Focus
Technology & IT in general: Networking, SEO techniques, Programming, Web Design, Hardware, …etc.
Presentations must be about existing and implemented ideas, not concepts, as existing projects give insight to hows & whats of the project rather than fantasizing about it.
Security Auditing (Hacking) and Proof of Concepts are welcome, but affected parties should be notified and invited to the event.
If this is a new exploit, net etiquette dictates that one should notify the affected party (company owning code) about the exploit 3 months prior to releasing the code to the public. The affected party must know about what the auditor is about to present, and the auditor must not share the PoC code with anyone apart from the affected party.
You are not allowed to sell a product or advertise it for the sake of selling it. You may NOT present an idea then ask the geeks in the audience to help you implement it!
Presentations will be screened & checked by the organizers before the speaker presents to make sure everyone is in compliance with our rules. Sorry, but some have violated these previously, so this has to be done.
Presentation Timing
Presentations should be 10 minutes long then 5 minutes for questions and answers, so 15 minutes in total.
Special Needs
If you have a special need to access the venue or require certain medical assistance to be available just in case (epilepsy, for example), please let us know so we take proper arrangements.
